Sister Yao is a famous prostitute in the Nancheng area. She is a stepmother.
In the troubled times, her mother had no one to rely on, so she worked as a prostitute with a half-closed door. When she got old and lost her business, the daughter took over her mother and continued to work as a prostitute. Later, she found a prostitute. When a man marries a wife, this husband is indeed made to be a tortoise. He guards the door and serves tea and water. He is very happy and has no masculine character at all.
This Sister Yao is indeed very pretty, and the charm of a semi-virtuous family is something that a brothel girl does not have. Manager Chu is fond of this kind of thing. After having an affair with her, he knows the essence of her taste, and whenever he has the opportunity, he will I came here to have sex with her, but I didn’t come over because I was busy with work. When I met my old friend, the fight was naturally heated.
Chu Youxiao had just seen those men in naughty costumes and thought they were ruffians from somewhere who had come to stir up trouble. When he saw Yang Hao's appearance, he couldn't help but hesitate: "You... who are you?"
Yang Hao looked at the situation in the room with a smile, waved his hand and said: "Come on, invite this guy on board, so that we can get close to his fellow sufferer."
In the magistrate's yamen, a small Imperial Army officer entered the residence of King Zhao Dezhao of Wei. After a while, the King of Wei's servants hurried over to invite Chu Zhaofu, Cheng Yu, Murong Qiuzui and others. When they saw Zhao Dezhao wearing He put on his dragon robe, put on his Yishan crown, and looked like he was about to go out. Everyone was puzzled. Chu Zhaofu hurriedly said: "Qiansui summoned the officials to come, what are your orders?"
Zhao Dezhao waved his hand and said: "It's not that I'm here to invite you, but that Yang Yuan has something urgent to do, and I'd like to ask you and I to rush back to the official ship as soon as possible. I don't know what the specific matter is now."
Fang Zhengnan frowned and said, "What is this stupid young man going to do again?"
Zhao Dezhao smiled and said: "Yang Yuan seems to be reckless, but he actually knows how to do things in a proper way. He will definitely not do this unless it is a big deal. Please don't complain and just follow my lead."
Everyone agreed. Zhao Dezhao casually asked that Magistrate Deng had not returned home yet, so he only informed the housekeeper of the Deng Mansion. The housekeeper's name was Liu Quan'er, who was also a distant relative of Magistrate Deng's wife. The uncles and brothers of the Deng family were cold-blooded by nature. He has always been too lazy to pay attention to Deng Zuyang, a brother whose parents died young. When he was in trouble, the Liu family took good care of him. He was a grateful person, and his wife often mentioned the kindness of his natal family, so after he became an official, All the Liu family members had followed him, and relied on his connections to get a job in the Yamen or local government.
When the housekeeper heard that the prince was going out, he hurriedly asked someone to inform his wife. He followed King Wei and his entourage out step by step. King Wei walked in front of him and walked around a bunch of grape vines when he heard a soft cry in surprise: A young girl's voice said: "Ah, it turns out it's King Wei Qiansui. Xiu'er has met His Highness."
Zhao Dezhao glanced around and saw a beautiful girl with a body as slim as the moon standing beside the rockery. She was the daughter of the prefect Deng. He couldn't help showing a happy expression and stepped forward two steps: "Miss Xiuxiu."
At this time, Chu Zhaofu and others also followed. When Deng Xiuer saw it, he bowed quickly and lowered his head, not daring to face her directly. Zhao Dezhao hesitated for a moment and smiled: "I am about to rush back to the ship to handle an official matter. It's getting late, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back tonight, so I would like to ask the girl to inform your father on your behalf."
Deng Xiuer lowered her head and responded: "Yes."
Zhao Dezhao hesitated for a moment, but after all it was inconvenient to say anything in front of so many subordinates, he nodded to her and walked away.
After a group of people cheered and followed Zhao Dezhao and disappeared, Deng Xiuer gently raised her head and looked into the deep flower path. She only heard the chirping of birds and found that the person was gone, and she couldn't help but feel lost.
After a few days, she already knew from her personal maid that Zhao Dezhao would walk in the courtyard every evening. For this "accidental encounter", she didn't know how long it took to prepare for this "encounter". Who knew he had official business to do tonight?
.The girl Xiu'er, who has just started to fall in love, has a man's shadow in her heart for the first time in her life. She prefers to have a long life, which makes people sigh.
In the quiet flower path of the trees, Miss Xiu'er held her hands on the Taihu Lei Stone, looked at the waning clouds in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.
On the imperial envoy's ship, Yang Hao had already got a donkey cart and brought Chu Youxiao, the foreign steward of the Zhou Mansion, and Yao Jie'er and his wife. As soon as Wei Wang Zhao Dezhao arrived, he immediately told him the whole story.
Zhao Dezhao couldn't help but pale after hearing this. At this time, because of the large number of people at Bisu, he was afraid that he would be noticed by someone who wanted to hide, so he didn't arrive yet.
Yang Hao had taken the time to read the information that Zhu Yuanwai had investigated while begging in the streets and alleys. It turns out that the people who know a person best are not his relatives, but his enemies. Zhu Yuanwai had detected many illegal activities of Uncle Zhou Wang, even
We also obtained a lot of information about how he covered the sky with one hand in Sizhou Prefecture, fought secretly with Liu Jiaming, and used both soft and hard tactics to annex other people's property, and recorded them one by one.
Yang Hao is the deputy imperial envoy. Among the three imperial envoys, he has the lowest official position and the most junior qualifications. Even though Murong Qiuzui, Fang Zhengnan and Cheng Yu are not imperial envoys this time, their seniority and background are no less than him. Naturally,
There is no reason to separate the pot, the table and the kang, and if this matter does not go through Zhao Dezhao, it is bound to be impossible to investigate. This is to invite them all. Anyway, everyone knows that he is a fool and acts recklessly without regard for the consequences. This matter
If you poke it out in front of everyone, no one can cover it up, just take responsibility for whatever happens.
Murong Qiuzui took away the criminal evidence recorded by Zhu Yuanwai, huddled together with Fang Zhengnan and studied it carefully for a long time. He raised his hands and praised the King of Wei: "Mr. Yang Yuan has done a good job. As long as these criminal evidences are verified one by one, there is no need to worry."
If the Sizhou grain gentry refuses to submit obediently, in my opinion, we can invite Magistrate Deng to take charge and investigate the case with all our strength."
Cheng Dexuan changed his expression and said: "Mr. Murong, this case involves Prefect Deng. Even if he is involved, it is impossible for him to be involved. Let him preside over the trial of the case? Isn't that giving someone the handle of the knife?"
Fang Zhengnan said: "These evil deeds do not directly involve Magistrate Deng. There are cases where family members do evil things without telling him. What's more, these are just Zhu Hongjun's remarks. The case has not yet been investigated. We have come from Kaifeng. If there is no local owner,
How to handle the case if the officials cooperate with each other?"
They are Zhao Pu's people, and Deng Zuyang is an official highly recommended by Zhao Pu. If Deng Zuyang falls, there is no guarantee that no one will use it to impeach Zhao Pu, so he vigorously defends it. Cheng Yu remained calm and said with a smile: "Mr. Fang's words are wrong.
Don't say that Magistrate Deng is also suspected. Even if Magistrate Deng doesn't know about it, the case involves his family members, so he should avoid it. If he is involved, how can he make the victim feel at ease? The prince has two lives here, and there is no way.
It doesn't matter if one soldier and one soldier is available. The case of the investigating officials is exactly the responsibility of the investigation envoys and supervisory envoys of this continent. They are currently supervising the purchase of grain in nearby towns and counties. They can be recalled urgently and they can directly investigate the case.
, the thousand-year-old King of Wei is in charge of the overall situation."
Murong Qiuzui said: "Deng Zu served the country diligently and honestly. This is known to everyone. It would be ridiculous to say that he committed crimes and committed crimes. Even if he is not allowed to be involved in this case, he should not be allowed to this place.
The chief is kept in the dark, not to mention that many things still require his cooperation."
Chu Zhaofu was sitting next to the King of Wei. When he saw the Prime Minister and the Prince's two groups fighting each other, his eyes immediately became confused and he sat there without saying a word.
Compared with other dynasties, the officials of the Song Dynasty were relatively able to be integrated into the system. Whether they were local officials or imperial envoys, they did not have much arbitrary power. Of course, if an official colluded with the wealthy gentry in private, the harm to the local area would also be considerable, but
Its operation process is often carried out in secret. Simply relying on the authority granted to local officials by the court is not enough to make them become county magistrates who destroy families and prefecture officials who destroy families.
Zhao Kuangyin did not allow a state within a state like a vassal town to appear again in the place. The binding force of the county magistrate and the governor also increased greatly. They could not do whatever they wanted like the "Bailihou" like the local officials of other dynasties. They could not do it because of
Your official position can have a hand in everything, and you can set up a "one-spoken court" at the local level. For example, the prefect's deputy is the judge, and he has the power to supervise and restrict the prefect on many matters.
In the long run, and from the perspective of modern experience, this is actually a good thing. If an official has too much autonomy, everything can only depend on his personal character. Once his character is not good, the place will be destroyed.
The official power is too great, and the harm to the local area is unimaginable.
However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. Because the power is too restricted, the ability to deal with emergencies is poor. Murong Qiuzui and Fang Zhengnan were deeply afraid that Deng Zuyang's involvement would implicate Zhao Pu, so they ran on the system.
King Wei, Cheng Yu, and Cheng Dexuan felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they took this opportunity to dig into Sizhou Mansion. Even if they could not bring down Zhao Pu, they would still make him sick for half a year.
While the two were arguing, Yang Hao said: "Chitose, the purchase and transportation of grain and grass from various places is of great importance. When we left the capital, the officials had granted Chitose arbitrary power. Chitose is in charge of this matter. According to the
If the lower official's opinion is appropriate, he can send someone to retrieve the observation envoy and supervisory envoy, and then summon Sizhou Tongjian and let the three of them preside over the case.
Chitose can report to the capital at the same time with a 600-mile horse, which is much more appropriate. When things are urgent, you can't worry too much. You must know that this is Sizhou Prefecture. They have many eyes and ears. If the news leaks, they will be with us.
It would be really bad if you could wipe out the evidence one by one right under your nose without leaving a trace."
Chu Zhaofu coughed and said slowly: "Chitose, I think... Yang Yuan's arrangement is quite appropriate."
Zhao Dezhao hesitated for a moment, and Huo Dili stood up and said: "Okay, just as Yang Yuan envoy said, Yang Yuan envoy, I will immediately send someone to summon the observation envoy of my government. When the inspection envoy comes back, he will summon Sizhou Tongpan to see him and send someone to report."
Report to the officials. Before this, my king had arbitrary control over the place. What do you think we should do now?"
Yang Hao said excitedly: "This is their territory. In the past, investigations have repeatedly failed because they were prepared. They could take advantage of their long-standing presence in the place and their pervasive influence to calmly deploy and eliminate all witnesses and physical evidence."
, this time we have to cut the knot quickly and arrest all the people involved immediately. Although we are in a hurry, they must also be caught off guard and beat the old master to death with random punches. No matter how cunning he is, there will be loopholes to catch by then!"
Before Zhao Dezhao could answer, a guard from the imperial army tiptoed in and saluted: "Envoy Yang, there is a man who was sneaking around the official ship and was caught by us. The man claimed to recognize the envoy and told me something important."
, please give instructions from Envoy Yang Yuan."
Yang Hao said in surprise: "You recognize me, what's that person's name?"
The imperial guard said: "He said...his name is Lao Hei, and he also said that the adults will understand it as soon as he hears it."
Yang Hao didn't understand when he heard it: "Old Hei...Old Hei...Ah! Mei..." Yang Hao quickly stopped, his heart tightened, and he thought to himself: "Why is Old Hei here? Could it be that something happened to the doll?"
?”
He hurriedly faced the King of Wei and said: "Qiansui, I will go out to meet this person and be back soon."
Yang Hao confessed his crime and hurried out of the cabin. Murong Qiuzui immediately said: "Qiansui, Yang Yuan is reckless in his actions. Whenever anything is handed over to him, he will definitely do it in a mess and out of control. He has it all over Tokyo."
How can Chitose follow his plan if he is famous? It is not that the imperial court has not investigated Sizhou Prefecture before, but there is no key evidence of arresting the grain gentry in these places. We have arrested people on such a large scale and created too much momentum. Once we are still arrested
If there is no evidence, what will happen then? I foolishly think that we should proceed step by step and arrange things calmly..."
Cheng Yu immediately intercepted and said: "Yang Yuan is acting recklessly? Yes, he has always been very fast in doing things, but many difficult and impossible things can be done perfectly in his hands. Is this acting recklessly? Qiansui, Sizhou
The officialdom is corrupt, officials and gentry collude, and various forces are intertwined, forming an airtight network. I believe that only by performing a thunderous move can we blow open the shady curtain and get to the leader. Yang Yuanshi's method is feasible!
"
"This is wrong. If things don't work out, where will you put Qian Sui? Qian Sui, I think..."
When Chu Zhaofu saw that the two factions were fighting again, they immediately turned into saw-mouthed gourds.
Yang Hao hurried out of the cabin and saw two imperial guards escorting a man standing on the deck. As soon as he saw him coming, the man immediately nodded and bowed, grinning: "Young man, I've seen you before."
Yang Hao hurriedly walked over and said, "I have something important to do, why are you here? What happened at home?"
